This is actually easy to do using Tri-Met's own Trip Planner [trimet.org], where you can not only choose between: "Quickest Trip", "Fewest Transfers", and "Shortest Walk", but you also have four choices between a quarter mile and one mile for the "I want to walk no more than:" setting. This latter feature proved very useful for planning routes for my limited-mobility folks when they visited this year.
As for bicycling to the MAX, integrating "multiple transportation modes, especially public transit" is one of the stated goals of the very cool new Bicycle Route Finder for Portland [bycycle.org], which is also in development.
